People Make Print / Art House Print Studio Kickstarter Campaign

We are excited to share the news of our Print Studio Kickstarter campaign, People Make Print, which will launch at The Art House as part of the Wakefield Artwalk on Wednesday 27 July, 5- 9pm.

The campaign will raise funds to improve and upgrade our print studio facility and develop a programme of Print Residencies specifically designed to support emerging artists and young people.

Live Printing / Print Your Own Tote Bag

Join us to celebrate the launch of People Make Print with live printing demonstrations, open studios and work on display from our July artist in residence, Fiona Grady. Print your own tote bag and take it home for free!

Spread the word! #peoplemakeprint
We would be super grateful if you could share and promote the campaign as much as possible by word of mouth or social media, getting people on board to pledge and support the facilities.

More details about the campaign
We hope to raise enough funds to add a paper screen printing vacuum bed to our print studios facilities and provide match funding for an Arts Council England supported programme of print residencies. This programme will team artists with young people for an intensive period of support and development in the print studio. It will be a unique experience for the selected artists and young people to gain inspiration, learn new skills, expand their practice and professional networks.
